One Wish

Saturday

°BACK TO SHAWN'S POINT OF VIEW°

   "So this is the first wish I've heard that a child has made which is not revolved around their self, so I have to check and see if we can do that but until then, We will be in touch."

I nod and he smiles.

   "If you don't mind me asking, what number will you be calling from?"

"Oh right,"

    He takes his phone out of his back pocket and asked for mine, I gave it to him he then but his number and name into my phone.

"Well I should get going I'll be in touch!"

   I nod and wave bye with a smile. I go back in the room and completely lose my shit.

   "What the hell Amethyst?! Why would you use your wish for something about me? That wish was for you not me, plus how did you even know to wish for that?!"

   "I know I know! I just overheard you talking on the phone and I couldn't help but feel like it was my fault..."

   I frown hating that she heard that conversation and immediately blamed herself. I grab her little chunky face and lift her head.

   "Cheer up chipmunk, it's not your fault I was just stressed out. I'm sorry you thought that."

   I kiss her forehead before suggesting that I go to the café and get us a banana nut muffin, she loved that idea so that's just what I did.

When my phone rings I jump a little but get excited when I see it's Derek.

"Hey did you find out anything?"

"I pulled a few strings, interview's on Sunday"

I almost bounce off the walls with excitement.

"Thank you, I really need this. How can I ever repay you?"

I hear him chuckle and pull out a chair.

"I'm just doing my job Carter."

"Nonsense I would feel bad... how about dinner Saturday 8:00pm?"

"Well I can't refuse free food so Saturday it is."
